Another option (which may also be suboptimal) is to put the enum-definition
in an include file and include it in the compilation units that
require it. Not really
useful for an extension.

Yet another option is to use easyffi, which uses "define-constant"
internally and
which has an "export_constants" declaration.

Or write your own enum-definition macro.
